Big Brother Obituary: Dennis McHugh
Published Friday, Jun 27 2008, 19:29 BST | By Beth Hilton

The 23-year-old had an eventful stay in the house, throwing himself into a variety of tasks, holding a meeting to cause a "stir" and spending more time in jail than any other housemate.
He was one of the main doubters of Steph's fake wedding to Mario in the first week of the show and attempted to recruit saboteurs to object on the big day along with his early friends Sylvia and Alex. However, he surprised everyone on day three by making a complete U-turn and declaring that he believed the nuptials to be real.
The dance student enjoyed an instrumental role in many of the group's tasks. He and Rachel earned a garden picnic after winning the light-switch endurance task, but their subsequent failure to complete the steady hand challenge left him in floods of tears.
He was elected to be the singer in the group's orchestra task on day 16 and took to the role with his usual flamboyance. He later belted out Bonnie Tyler classic 'Total Eclipse Of The Heart' in the Endurance Karoake task and threw himself into the job of choreographer when the group was told to recreate a dance routine from a music video.
Dennis was involved in his fair share of mischief during his time in the house. On day 11, he called a meeting with the purpose of "causing a stir" after noticing a lack of arguments among the housemates.

Dennis enjoyed two stints at Big Brother's pleasure in his last week, first with Jennifer on day 16 for talking about the audition process and then with Darnell for discussing nominations.
He declared himself to be the "happiest man" in the house on day 21 when fake tan was delivered with the shopping. However, his good mood was not to last and he was booted out for unacceptable conduct over his involvement in the argument on day 22.
